Ikebana card

Hi there!

I’m quickly popping in with my entry for this week’s challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.

I’ll be back later to add more photos, but want to make sure I hit the challenge deadline!

ETA – I’m so relieved I managed to get my entry in this evening. This week has been busy and I really haven’t felt like crafting! I only had a couple of hours to create a card this evening and although the card came together quickly, I wasted a lot of time trying to stamp a ‘perfect’ sentiment…. and after all that,  I had huge computer issues. I really thought I wouldn’t make it.

Anyway, I used a fabulous die set by Sizzix called ‘Ikebana’. I cut the images from Craft Consortium paper and then dry embossed a piece of my precious Basic Grey paper with a favourite Simon Says Stamp embossing folder called ‘Spun Glass’. I splattered some gold paint over the background, but the splatters are rather subtle so you can’t really see them in my photos.

The sentiment ifs from a My Favorite Things set.

Thanks for stopping by!
